Christmas Mobiles

Beech Class continued their work on sculpture in art by making their own Christmas mobiles. We made shapes out of clay using cutters.  We added patterns using lace and many other things that imprinted texture into the clay.  We then painted them with watercolours and coated them with PVA, adding glitter as we did this.  Finally, we attached glitter string and attached our shapes to our driftwood hangers.  We had to pay attention to balancing our mobiles by positioning our dangling shapes carefully, this linked to our work on forces in science this term.
